you say we cant let this happen again, but really it cant, bush cannet get elected again, and there will be a couple new candidates in 2008, but if you mean let the republican party win again, thats not very right, becuase to say that its wrong to be a republican isnt cool
and theres no point in denying it unless ur gonna move to canada, so really that shirt doesnt apply, becuase... he is your president

i'm not moving to canada, bush is the country's president but in my heart hes not my president. i respect your beliefs but strongly disagree with them.
as for canada, i prefer to just stay here and fight for what is right. i'm not going to war and i'm not letting stupid people take over this country anymore

I think Robin is aware that Bush can't (check your spelling) get elected again. The slogan "Not My President" means that we, as Bush opposers, do not want Bush to represent us. I think Robin is also aware that technically Bush is the president of everyone in the US.
Also, the fact that she opposes a republican leader makes her a democrat. This is not "wrong," it's an opinion. I think that expressing this opinion is cool, actually. Cooler than bashing other people's views anyway as you did.

Respectfully,
Eve

ok like i said in my second entry i didnt meant o come off as bashing or anything, i guess i just dont really understand that slogan because i dont not believe it
what i meant about opposing a conservative is that sometimes, though you may agree with this now, a conservative could be the better choice. What i mean is that when someone considers all conservatives bad and evil i dont think that that is right because i consider myself a conservative, and all of my friends are strong liberals, and they can accept me, but it doesnt feel good when sometime if i put out a view about something, someone will ask, "you are a republican?!" in a tone that sounds as if it is a bad thing. Like you said expressing opinions is a great thing and i love that, and no opinion is wrong. Sorry if i was unclear, i never meant to gloat or anything that my condidate won.

sorry i keep commenting thekitch November 3 2004, 21:25:06 UTC
p.s.
if you saw Senator Kerry's speech when conceded, you will know that what he said that was that now that this is over, we need to once again be one country under the flag, NOT under any president, and not 2 sides that do not like eachother. He later talked to President Bush on the phone, and they were talking about ways to reunite the country, they both agreed that would be a very hard thing to do
just something to think about
